Search Results: attracted to someone

Even with no actual experience I still believe I fall under this category, I wonder if I need to manifest the law of attraction or something even though I do think that’s bs.

You know when you have a gut feeling? I’ve been on and off the dating apps for years, it’s come to the point where I’m not as interested & I swipe on matches/reply to msgs every few days. Dating apps are the only way I’ve tried dating as I dont have a social life but dating apps have been successful for quite a few people I know. I’ve never had a real relationship, I saw someone for a few months maybe 5 years ago & something told me after I saw him that’d I’d be single for a long time. With him it felt like settling & I refuse to ever be with someone that made me feel like that again.

I had to use dating apps bc I’m not very friendly & I don’t get approached in person. I’m told I’m cute/attractive & I will say I have a very low sex drive (haven’t masturbated or had sex in 5 years). I don’t think this is a huge deal considering this isn’t something that will be an issue that early on, a guy can’t just look at my profile/see me in person & know that right off the bat.

I get matches (never been the issue) but it’s always: ghosting, fizzling out, lack of interest (can go both ways), feelings not reciprocated, just not a good match & some guys are just crazy. I just always have a gnawing feeling like guys aren’t attracted to me, I’d get told once in a while that some guy looked at me/found me cute but they never do anything about it. And I don’t either hence why I’m posting this

TLDR: based off the description, is this something that’s unlucky in love?

I've been on a few dates with this guy and after he rejected me saying he didn't really find me that attractive. Then i asked why would you go on 3 dates with someone you don't feel attracted to. He said because he is kinda attracted and he liked my personality so much and we clicked instantly so good he just couldn't let me go but he feels like he has to. We agreed to stay friends and still talk sometimes but not all the time anymore. I didn't reply to his last message (a long one we had a conversation going) i will give him some space and ask him whats up a couple of days later. When he rejected me he said that somehow this feels like a breakup to him because likes me so much.

I can't figure out what he meant okay if he is not attracted he still wouldn't have gone on 3 dates and talk for 2 months flirting constantly because if men lose interest they dont have the energy to talk 0-24 after that. Maybe something happened to him I don't know i thought everything was great. Now that i'm ignoring him will this push him away even more? Is there a chance for him to regret his decision and miss me?
